    AFRD E-Mail Set Up Guide 4

    Introduction

    Automated File and Report Delivery was designed to be secure but flexible, usingcommon standards and tools wherever possible. In most cases you can choose from a

    number of different Web servers, mail clients, Certificate Authorities (CA), etc., that meetAFRD requirements. Because of this, it is impossible to fully document, in detail, theinstallation and configuration of every workable scenario. This guide definesrequirements, lists solutions that have been tested by Citibank, and offers othersuggestions. In addition, it provides details around the certificate process for popular e-mail programs and the set up and creation of certificates for approved Web servers.These details are only intended as a useful referenceand in no way are meant toreplace product specific documentation that you should reference to best accomplish therequired activities.

    Please refer to the Automated File and Report Delivery Configuration andInstallation Guide as a prerequisite reading before proceeding with this guide.

    Overview

    Obtaining Your Personal E -mail Certificate

    CitiDirect Online Banking supports any X.509v3 compliant Personal / E-mail certificateissued by a standard Certificate Authority (CA), such as VeriSign

    or Thawte.

    Moreover, if you have your own Certificate Server installed, such as Microsoft

    Certificate Server or Netscape

    Certificate server. CitiDirect Online Banking will alsohonor these certificates.

    Although we do not require a specific certificate from a specific CA, Citibank stronglyrecommends that you deal with a reputable CA with auditable policies and procedureson certificate issuance and administration.

    Please refer to the Digital Certificate Summary grid in the Configuration and InstallationGuide for general requirements and general end-user experience in obtaining andinstalling digital certificates. Once you obtain your certificate you will need to import itinto your e-mail desktop personal computer (PC) and ensure that your e-mail is properlyset up.

    Please use these instructions solely as a reference of what needs to occur. Follow yourproducts specific documentation on how best to accomplish this activity.

    Setting up your E -mail Client for S/MIME

    What follows is a step-by-step process of what needs to be done to enable some of themore popular e-mail programs for S/MIME. Although the following instructions areconsidered accurate (as of the date of this document), Citibank strongly suggests thatyou follow your products specific user guides to configure your e-mail program forSMIME.

    If you have recently installed Netscape on your system or have never used any of Netscape'ssecurity features, you may be asked to create and setup a Netscape Communicator password.

    Citibank highly recommends taking this action. By doing so, you effectively prevent any individual,other than yourself, from managing, importing or exporting digital certificates on your machine.This password also restricts other individuals from sitting down at your machine and signing e-

    mail messages with your digital ID.

    Note:Be sure to remember your Communicator password. This is a Netscape function, included

    with Communicator for your security. If you forget your password, you will not have access tomanage, deploy or use your digital ID. There is nothing your CA and/or Netscape can do in the

    event that this happens and ANY digital certificates you may have will be rendered useless.

    The Authentication Phase , carried out by your CA. Depending on the type of certificate you arerequesting this process might be quite simple or rather complex.

    After you complete the enrollment process explained in the above steps, depending on your CA

    and the type of certificate you requested, they will either e-mail you that your certificate isavailable or send you some form of postal mail. Irrespective of the mode of delivery, themessage will contain specific information on how you can pick up your Digital ID.

    This mailing usually includes such items as a URL you can use to get your Digital ID along withsome form of PIN number.

    Go to the URL included in the e-mail and complete the Certificate retrieval process.

    Note: since you will be installing your Digital ID in Netscape, you must go to the pickup pageusing Netscape Communicator. This causes the Digital ID to be installed in your browser, in turn,allowing the Netscape Messenger client to locate it.

    The Retrieval Phase consists of getting your certificate for use. For e-mail certificates, most CAwill notify you of your certificates availability using e-mail. For other certificate types, server, for

    example, some certificate authorities use e-mail, others may use the postal service. Irrespectiveof the method of communication, most will provide you with a U.R.L. where you can retrieve yourcertificate online. Follow your CAs instructions for retrieving your certificate.

    If you retrieve your certificate using Netscape (Communicator/Messenger), a series of windowswill be displayed requesting that you name and save your certificate.

    Understanding E -Mail Security (S/MIME)

    An Internet mail message consists of a message header, which contains sender andrecipient information, and an optional message body. The message body can containplain text or contain multiple body parts or file attachments as defined by the MIMEstandard. MIME 1 defines a standard mechanism for incorporating multiple messagetypes in a single e-mail message. However, it does not define how to secure themessage body. S/MIME provides the required security extensions that let MIME entitiesencapsulate security objects, such as digital signatures and encrypted messages.Through these extensions, the privacy and integrity of your e-mail can be guaranteed.

    1MIME is defined in Request for Comments (RFC) 2045 through 2049. It defines how a

    message body can contain data types other than flat ASCII.

    31/43

    AFRD E-Mail Set Up Guide 31

    While the actual risk or likelihood of interception is relatively low, without S/MIME, someone alonga message's journey could conceivably intercept one or more of these chunks of plain text and

    read at least part, if not all, of your message. To use a traditional postal analogy, this is similar tosending a postcard, where anyone who encounters that card along its way can read, and perhaps

    even modify, the message you write on the back of the card. Moreover, someone could write apostcard and forge your name and address on it, making their message appear to have comefrom you. Given the sensitive nature of the information being transferred to CitiDirect, protectingthe message during transit is of utmost importance.

    To ensure the privacy and integrity of the data transmitted from CitiDirect to you, CitiDirect haschosen to utilize S/MIME

    2(Secure Multipurpose Internet Mail Extension) standard. S/MIME was

    designed to add security to e-mail messages in MIME format. The S/MIME standard was chosensince it has established itself as the de-facto standard for e-mail security within the industry.Moreover, S/MIME relies on state of the art Public Key cryptography and is supported in most of

    the popular e-mail programs on the market today. Popular e-mail programs (including Microsoft

    Outlook

    Express and Outlook 2000, as well as Netscape Communicator/Messenger) not only

    support S/MIME but actually interoperate with each other.

    This decision enables us to apply a full set of security functions to e-mail. These functionsinclude:

    Confidentiality - provided by the use of 128bit DES strong encryption;

    Integrity - provided by the use of SHA-1 Digital Signatures;

    Authentication - provided by the use of X.509 Digital Certificates;

    Proof of a transaction or 'Non-Repudiation' as define by the Public Key Infrastructure

    (PKI)

    End-User Certificate Requirements (e-mail)

    Given that S/MIME relies on PKI, you will need to acquire a Personal E-mail Certificate(X.509) from an independent Certifying Authority (CA). Two of the most popular

    certificate authorities are:http://www.verisign.com/http://www.thawte.com/

    CitiDirect recommends using S/MIME with the following symmetric encryptionalgorithms:? Triple DES (more correctly DES ECE3 in CBC) using 168-bit key.? RC2 encryption in CBC mode using 128-bit key

    You will also need to obtain another certificate for each end-user, which will allow you toautomatically trust all certificates signed by Citibank.

    This certificate, Citigroups (Citibank) CA certificate, is obtained by accessing CitibanksWeb site at the following location:

    https://digitalcertificate.citigroup.com/cda-cgi/clientcgi?action=start

    Note: If you are using Netscape Messenger to receive your e-mail you must access thesite above using the Netscape browser. If you would like to use Microsofts e-mail

    2S/MIME 3.0 became an Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) approved standard In June

    1999. Please refer to Requests for Comments (RFCs) 2632 through 2634 for further details onthis standard.

    Only one e-mail address may be specified for each automated e-mail delivery schedule.

    Our mail server imposes a file size limitation of 25mb.

    Due to its nature, e-mail delivery is NOT GUARANTEED. CitiDirect will know onlywhether it has successfully submitted the e-mail to the mail system processor (SMTPserver) for delivery. CitiDirect will not know whether e-mail subsequently reached itsintended recipient.

    You may apply different processing controls to your e-mail activities. For example, youmay configure your e-mail servers to reject e-mails with attachments that are greaterthan a certain size. Or you may defer delivery of e-mails with such attachments. Youalso may require administrative procedures to accept receipt of e-mails from a restrictedlist of domains outside of the company, etc.

    CitiDirect Processing (Sign, Encrypt and Send)

    To guarantee message privacy, CitiDirect Online Banking will encrypt all mail using theTripleDES algorithm (symmetric cipher), and a randomly generated secret key

    (generated per message). CitiDirect will then apply a one-way hash (SHA-1) on theencrypted data to obtain a checksum of the data. CitiDirect will then apply a DigitalSignature to the message by encrypting the checksum (using an asymmetric cipher)using its own Private Key. The session key is then encrypted using the recipients PublicKey so that it can be retrieved by you as the recipient. All of these objects/structures arethen assembled into an e-mail message and sent using SMTP (e-mail protocol) to therecipients e-mail address.

    Client Processing (Verify Signature, Decrypt and View)

    For you to decrypt and verify the integrity of the message, you must have obtained the root CAcertificate of Citibank. Please refer to the section entitled Setup Details for more information onhow to obtain it.

    Assuming you have an S/MIME aware e-mail program, when the e-mail arrives at your inbox, thefollowing steps are performed:

    1. You receive a warning message stating that the message is encrypted. Depending onthe e-mail program, you may have to select some option to continue processing the

    message.2. The session key information (protecting the message) is decrypted using your Private

    (secret) Key.

    3. The message signature is validated using the Public Key of Citibank (and/or CitiDirectOnline Bankings Public Key which were previously obtained).

    AFRD E-Mail Set Up Guide 33

    4. The message is decrypted for viewing/processing.

    If your e-mail program only displays two file attachments with the extension *.p7m and/or *.pls,then your e-mail program either does not support S/MIME or has not been properly configured.

    Please check your e-mail products installation and configuration documentation for enabling

    S/MIME functionality.
